This game has just started. Sky Sport 1 in NZ.

Tim

@stargazer Cheers!

Stargazer

Haha, ref sends two props (one team each) to the bin. Now they both have to take another player off, because they need the reserve props for the scrum.

NTA

Some fucking ridiculous one sided refereeing here.

Welsh halfback should have fed it

Stargazer

Oh oh.

Stargazer

Just accidental head clash. Seriously, that shouldn't be a card.

NTA

"when you don't know what is going on you send both players from the field"

Really? Fuck off. When you don't know what you're doing, don't ref.

Stargazer

Geez, what a bs red card!

Wales clearly under pressure based on the first three scrums

Stargazer

Commentator is right: if it was so bad, why doesn't the tackled player go off for an HIA?

That's fucking bullshit. How the fuck did this clown get the premiership final?

Chris

What absolute BS red card the welsh player hasn’t even gone for a HIA

Chris

That highlights why throwing out the red card trial of being able to replace a red card after 30min is a complete fuck up.

Chris

Is that not a card FFS

Chris

This referee is a fucking idiot ,Imagine if we get him on the NH tour. No chance of us winning anything.

Stargazer

@chris Yep, and this is the way things are officiated in the NH. SH teams going to be in big trouble when they play there and get NH refs.

I assume this is because Unions are so scared of law suits from ex-players? Ruin the game with over-the-top officiating, because of possible lawsuits later?

Really one stupid decision and you are gone.
The game is a mess then if this is where we are headed.
